  1. what should be username and password if I am using ubuntu and one more query Enter your root folder path of your hosting : which path i should give ?

    • “I am using ubuntu”
      Does it mean you are using or your server is in Ubuntu?

      We need to take server configuration here. So if your server is in Ubuntu then I hope you can see following blog post which will show how to install and setup FTP server in Ubuntu
      http://www.krizna.com/ubuntu/setup-ftp-server-on-ubuntu-14-04-vsftpd/
      This link blog post is not written by me but think it will be helpful for you.
      Take Ubuntu version into consideration, as well as take consideration which FTP are you going to use will it be FTP server or SFTP (Secure FTP).

      Hope this will help

      Thanks
